This dating app wants you to have a rom-com moment IRL

Every rom-com has that moment: The meet-cute. When the two main characters cross paths for the first time; their eyes lock, their hands touch. It’s perfect, and it never happens in real life. (No, we’re not bitter.)

Until now.

You see, chances are you’ve been passing by your soon-to-be special someone for months, without even knowing it. And you don’t have to wait until fate brings you together because you can make your own fateful encounter, thanks to dating app Happn.

The app lets you find the people you’ve crossed paths with at the store, the gym, at your favourite bar La Distillerie, or at Kafein cafe-bar where you get your morning coffee. This is what sets it apart from other dating apps in Montreal. It’s the only one that brings real life and dating together.

How the magic happens

In-app preview/Happn

Every time you cross paths with another Happn member in real life, their profile shows up on your timeline. If you like them, you can hit the “heart” button and they will never know unless they heart you back. Then you can start a conversation if you want to.

The best part is that the people you crush (pair) with on the app, live in your area. So you don’t have to worry about connecting with someone who lives in another city or country (because long distance is the worst).

And although the app tells you where you crossed paths with your potential new love interest, nobody can see where you are at exactly any time, so you don’t have to worry about stalkers creeping on you.

There are no fake accounts or catfishing on Happn. And nobody can contact you unless you’ve already pressed the “heart” button on their profile. So yes, the person you’re talking to is a real human who you can meet in real life, in Montreal.

If you opt for Happn Premium, you can even say “hi” to the person you’ve crossed paths with, right after you do.

Instead of wasting your time going on dates with people that you have absolutely nothing in common with, you can vibe with people who actually like going to the same places you do with Happn.

It’s not rocket science, it’s just a smart approach to dating.

Download Happn via the iTunes Store or Google Play Store and get ready for your rom-com moment.
